5: The Book of the Fives

93. Declarations

1"Bhikkhus, there are these five declarations of final knowledge.[n.1098] Aññābyākaraṇāni. Mp: "Declarations of arahantship." What five? (1) One declares final knowledge because of one's dullness and stupidity; (2) one declares final knowledge because one has evil desires and is motivated by desire; (3) one declares final knowledge because one is mad and mentally deranged; (4) one declares final knowledge because one overrates oneself; and (5) one correctly declares final knowledge. These are the five declarations of final knowledge."

1"Pañcimāni, bhikkhave, aññābyākaraṇāni. Katamāni pañca? Mandattā momūhattā aññaṁ byākaroti; pāpiccho icchāpakato aññaṁ byākaroti; ummādā cittakkhepā aññaṁ byākaroti; adhimānena aññaṁ byākaroti; sammadeva aññaṁ byākaroti. Imāni kho, bhikkhave, pañca aññābyākaraṇānī"ti.

Tatiyaṁ.
